Belquist sure doesn’t look like the skinny freshman he once was. Looks ripped! Would not be surprised if he is the best WR in the MVFC this year! He can only get batter from the last great couple years.

hope that extra weight doesn't slow him down tho....skinny is ok...just look at randy moss!!!!

Can UND actually make this 2 QB system work?

Until QV2 moves a pile or proves to be dynamic we have a 1 QB system.  If it's something other than 90/10 for a healthy Tommy Gun I'll be surprised.

Don't get me wrong, I want TOmmy to take the majority of the snaps.  But we play our first 3 games and Quicy only takes 10% of the snaps, we don't have a 2 QB system.  We have a QB that just goes in there to pick up the 3rd and inches.  Which is what we had last year.  I am hoping and thinking Danny is planning on using him a bit more.  I don't want 50/50.  I would be ok with 80/20 or at the most 75/25.  All depends on how effective Quincey is.

Have we seen Quincey pass yet? He hasn’t had the opportunity much.

whatever minuses q has with his arm i think might be made up with his "willingness" to run unlike tommy who just doesn't seem to want to run for some reason

I didn't say I like the short term tactic, or gimmicks, but recognize it for what it is. 

This'll kill @geaux_sioux, but tell me about the offensive line. That'll tell me all I need to know. 

It’s a major ? (question mark)

The unit lost a player to the NFL, so that certainly doesn’t help.

Quincey is not an every down FCS QB

Can he catch the ball? Two QBs in on a play makes gadget play chaos for the defense.

What do you mean we don't even know what we have with Tommy?  Tommy is an every down FCS QB and has proven it.  Doesn't mean there isn't room for improvement though, running a bit more at opportune times....and some more completions 35+ yards downfield......which is probably what you are eluding too......we may not have seen Tommy's ceiling quite yet.  This is the year for it! 

[gfhockey]

Tommy I feel like is like studsrud 

 

game manager 

 

nit built to come back from being down but once up hard for other team to come back

Are you already calling for the backup to come in?

Probably pretty accurate. I do feel like Studsrud could have had a better career without Rudy but that’s a big what if. 

[shep]

I never liked Studsrud.

I like Tommy. 

I could be wrong, but I think he's quite a bit better.

The problem is that when Q is in the game it telegraphs to the D that we are most likely going to run the ball.   I'll take the side that says two QB's is no QB.

Tommy is a much better true QB. More cerebral. Just feel like with Studsrud rushing ability he had something. Maybe he was further off from being a quality passer than I’m remembering.

If memory serves me right (it often doesn't) Quincy threw a short pass for  TD vs Utah State

He also threw a TD pass against South Dakota in the spring season.

[SiouxFan100]

Quincy had 9 completions on 17 attempts for 70 yards and three touchdowns last year.

when I asked if we have seen him pass I meant he hasn’t had many opportunities and we have not seen much of what he is capable of so far. Hopefully he has much more to show us with his arm.

Call it what you want ... gimmick, smoke and mirrors, etc.

I think its utilization really comes down to IF Tommy can run AND Quincy can throw. Without that you lose unpredictability and without unpredictability you lose effectiveness. If Quincy can come in on short yardage and consistently have a 15 -20 yard throw in the mix, and Tommy can pick up 6-7 yard first down runs periodically then this could work.

Defenses have typically know how to prepare for the QB changes because our QBs have been limited to their strengths. Have they expanded on those? I sure hope so.
